Class visits

Rewriting Oudenaarde’s history: that’s not really our thing. Instead, at MOU we are happy to serve up our big histories with little anecdotes tailored to your class. Find out how we usually share history with primary and secondary school children. 

Would you like to emphasize a particular theme or subject during the tour? At MOU, we are happy to respond to what you have been discussing in class. Our offering can be supplemented with a city tour or other activities in the neighborhood. 

Scheduled for academic year 2024–2025.

Margaret: The Emperor’s Daughter between Power and Image, from 21 September 2024 to 5 January 2025. Multimedia exhibition on Oudenaarde-born Margaret of Parma, governor of the Netherlands between 1559 and 1567. With tailor-made offerings for schools.

From spring 2025, MOU will tell the surprising story of Oudenaarde and the art of tapestry through a number of digital experience tools. A film, interactive tools and game elements show the rich history of our city. 

Behind the scenes, the museum team is working hard on a renewed educational offering for the 2025–2026 school year. Keep an eye on the museum’s website!
